Second post with a connection to Liverpool in as many days, so back down the East Lancs. 800, not another dodgy CGI film oh no, 800 is a project put together by a photographic collective called popcultured. http://www.popcultured.co.uk/ It is 800 portraits of the good people of Liverpool to mark the city's 800th anniversary. Originally shown at Albert Dock it was so popular that it is to go back on show at St Johns shopping centre. more details at the above website. Community arts projects like this are normally a lovely idea that turn out crap photography, but in this case the portraits are truly fantastic!
